Hi, I'm Adriana. I make videos exploring the intersection of baking + science.
I've been a home baker for several years, but I'm also a scientist (MS in Microbiology/Immunology; PhD in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology).
I've spent many years studying biology, biochemistry, microbiology, and chemistry and look at recipe development through the lens of science. This is my passion; I love researching the functions and interplay of all the macromolecules (proteins, starches, sugars, fats) in desserts. I get lost in my research, digesting texts and peer-reviewed publications and distilling down the important tidbits so that I can build recipes.
In addition to my videos, I've also built the Cakeculator, a custom cake recipe app that's free for you to use on my website. As a home baker, it allows you to choose the cake and frosting flavors to build a cake you'd want to make.
You can go to www.sugarologie.com to check it out.
Welcome to my channel and Happy Baking 🍓
